Kenneth Lawrence Petrosky

Kenneth was born February 26, 1941 in Detroit, MI to Constantine E. and Martha A., nee Zilz, Petrosky. He was preceded in death by his parents; one sister, Linda S. Petrosky; and brother-in-law, Tommy E. Dillard.

Surviving to cherish his memory is sister, Carol A.

Kenneth served as a custodian for many years at St. Stephen Lutheran Church and School and West Bethlehem Lutheran Church in Detroit, relocating to O'Fallon, IL after retirement. He was a devoted member of Messiah Lutheran Church in Lebanon, IL. His appreciation for the arts extended to his love of plays, music, sketching and painting, as he was a talented artist. In his free time, he found joy in reading and building model cars, trucks, trains and aircrafts. Kenneth will be dearly missed by all who knew and loved him.
